Li Ci had originally expected Yuan Shu to take the opportunity to raise some requests, but he didn't expect her to be so honest. She didn't seem to have any intention of currying favor with the rich and powerful at all, making Li Ci seem a little petty in comparison.
Li Ci was someone who had been in the business world before. Since Yuan Shu had helped him, he had to repay her. Hence, he said, "No matter what, I have to thank you for this time. My Li family won't owe others a favor for nothing. We will definitely help deal with Yuan An's matter."
He was on good terms with the eldest son of the Shi family, so after Yuan An's accident, he asked Secretary Zhao to deal with this matter. Although he had a good chat with Yuan Shu that day, he still felt that this was just lip service.
When he mentioned that he would deal with Yuan An's matter, he was certain that Yuan Shu couldn't handle this matter.
